Extra virgin oil from centenarian olive groves in Extremadura, produced by the Retemar family over generations. Introduced to Feral Trade by a friend of the producer visiting Bristol to improve his spoken English.
ferally traded since: 07/06/13.

Euro 2,025 paid to producer Juan Miguel Retamar for 450L olive oil at 4.50 euro/L a non-negligible price rise on last years shipment due to Europe-wide low levels of production producing less quantity of good quality oil. Exchange rate of 1.10960 reflects UK pound BREXIT battering & possiby a sign of things to come

Road transport UK, with a company who shift wine betewen bonded locations, the oil was hitchhiking with 14 pallets of Xisto wines, to date (7/11/17) Xisto and Feral Trade have been unable to extract an actual price/invoice from the drivers "nah mate, we'll look after that, we'll let you know on wenesday" and are hoping we will not be hit by anything too unexpected

Anton Mann Hi Kate..
Sorry slow getting back ...literally
I'm told your oil is in the warehouse in Porto
We will be there Monday am .We plan to get a truck and get cargo to ship and load tomorrow at high water ..
The ship had to move to another location opposite bank.
My friend I'm staying with lives on the opposite side so it is sort of working out
kate rich Nordlys arrived in the port of Fowey Oct 12th, just 4 days post the annual Sail Cargo Alliance meeting, with 14 crates of wine and mixed goods for Xisto wines, olive oil for New Dawn Traders and the Feral Trade olive oil, 3x bottles of which were pre-sold quayside to Bessie Ellen and Nordlys ships cooks. Due to short notice of ship's confirmed arrival Anton from Xisto mustered 4 trucks to transport up to Bristol on the Monday 16th, coinciding exactly with the rare occurrence of nearby passing Hurricane Ophelia, triggering the excitement of 7m swells in locally and causing the Nordlys to be tugged out to safety of the open sea far from the unloading pontoons. A cargo tender (small transport/service boat) was rustled together with the addition of plywood to provide high-sided protection and cargo eventually ferried ashore to a nearby jetty and unloaded at a camping ground, from where the trucks were able to load. Trasported by road to Anton's lockup in St Werberghs, Bristol, and delivered to Feral Trade in 2x carloads on the friday & saturday of that week.
